Halloween Fun: County Library
Stop by the County Library during our open hours on Friday, October 29 or Saturday, October 30 for some Halloween fun! We will have treats to hand out, a photo booth to take your own pictures, spooky books on display, and take-and-make craft kits available (while supplies last). This is a drop-in style program so come when you can and stay as long as you like!

Somethings is afoot at the Strasburg Community Library! Join us on Saturday, October 23 at 7:00 pm for a one-act play in which you are the detective! Solve the crime and win a dinner for two!

Celebrate Archives Month
During the month of October the Shenandoah County Library will celebrate National Archives Month. This is a time to commemorate the work of repositories like our own Truban Archives and those staff members and volunteers who provide access to the collections they hold.
To help celebrate, we will be hosting and participating in a series of local, regional, and national archival events including:
Shenandoah Valley Archives Fair
On Wednesday, October 20 2021 archivists from throughout the region will gather to share information about their collections during the third annual Shenandoah Valley Archives Fair.
